' AI PPABA'I'US FOR AUTOMATICALLY BASTING FRIED OR ROAST MEAT.

Be it known that I, HERMANN Simmer, a

citizen of the Swiss Republic, residing at .75

Metzgerstrasse', Aarau, Switzerland, hotel- 'keeper, have invented certain-new an useful Im rovements in Apparatus for Autoly Easting Fried or Roast Meat, gof

which the folldwing is a specification.

This invention consists in. apparatus for automatically basting fried or roast meat.

p This device has fa vessel for producing steam, provided with a-steam injecting nozzle. The steam jet is intended to force the fat in the frying or roasting pan into an uptake tube from which the at is' conveyed into a distributing channel from "which it flows over the meat lying in the pan.

Two forms of. the invention are illustrated in the drawing. I

Figure 1 is a vertical section of the device arranged in a roast-in 01'" fr in an, and

T y g P i at its end a flowing and discharging channel '7. and in the case of small-apparatus this provided with a shell 2 isa lanvof 1. Fig. '3 a vertical section of the device provided with a straight dFistributing channel. Fig). 4- a plan of 1,223.

The vessel 1 containing the water is pro vided. with an opening 2 with a sprin seated safety valve.. In the vessel 1 a sma l ike distribute'r. Fig:-

nozzle'5 whic is directed into the pipe 6. The fat for fryingwhich is already in the frying pan is caused to'flow by the oblique position of the fr ing pan, to the lifting tube and is force up by the out-flowing steam from the injector 5'into the uptake tube 6, and conveyed into the channel or distributer 7. The lower part of the receptacle 1 is perforated for the purpose of allowing the fat-to enter the pipe 6- while preventing meatand other substances "irom getting into the pipe.-

The channel or gutter as 3 and 4 tapers forward and has side 'discharging outlets inclined downward.

This ap aratus entirely obviates the necessity of asting meat by hand, as the basting fat thepan is kept in circulation, and. is always caused to flow over the meat.

What Iclaim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is f i a. Patented Se t. 10, 1912.
